Buckeyes warn Vols: We're better now
By RUSTY MILLER

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- When Ron Lewis' name was announced at Ohio State's winter graduation Sunday, there was a loud roar from the thousands packed into St. John Arena.
Lewis is the big man on campus after his clutch 3-pointer forced overtime against Xavier last Saturday. Now, the Buckeyes, who won that game 78-71, are on their way to San Antonio for a regional semifinal game against Tennessee on Thursday night.

Anybody have a video of the Pearl interview on PTI? I was at physical therapy and the tv was on mute with no closed captioning.

personally i believe chism is the key to this game. sure oden will get his points down low but i think the problem lays on our defense because chism is capable of hitting threes and has been hot as of late. if chism is hot and pulling up threes then oden is going to have to open up to the perimeter more which gives more room on the inside but lofton doesnt strike me as a great drive to the basket kinda player but the rest of the UT team together can do damage is chism is having a good perimeter night IMO.

Amen Dane. This is going to be a great game between two talented teams. Can't wait to watch it.

Couldn't agree more - if we go to man to man, I'd sure like to see someone other than Oden on Chism (say Lighty or Hunter) if he starts shooting from outside. I'm not sure who Oden would gaurd in that situation, but I think when Oden is in that zone is the way to defend the Vols. - we should be OK rebounding with Oden in, even in zone.
